49DODGEBOY Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Once again, very few 40's - 50's Mopar out there. But wanted to share this one, was very clean and simple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
desoto1939 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 hope it does not rain when the owner is driving the car, No wipers attached. ALso are the rear fenders in a flat or mat black. There seems to be no shine on the right rear fender. But overall a nice looking car. Rich Hartung Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1952B3b23 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 Nice car. It's a shame that we don't get to see more Mopars turned into early style customs. To me they are great candidates for restyling and don't get the attention that they deserve. Lots of people are so obsessed with the Ford Shoeboxes and Mercurys that it get's kind of old seeing the same types of cars all the time. I'm a custom car lover and can really appreciate a well restyled Ford or Merc but it's nice to see some diversity out there. Just my two cents.

deathbound Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I was there the last few hours Saturday and only saw a couple Mopars (will post pics soon). Previous years, I've seen quite a bit more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Elder Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 I'd rather they never become popular enough to become mainstream.......I would like to pay ford and chevy prices for my parts, but not when purchasing a whole car. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1952B3b23 Posted February 1, 2016 Report Share Posted February 1, 2016 That's a good point Frank. The lower price tags for these cars does make me happy too. What's the Facebook link to? I don't have an account so I can't see anything. -Chris 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

knuckleharley Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 Once again, very few 40's - 50's Mopar out there. But wanted to share this one, was very clean and simple. Not so sure about the "simple" aspect when it comes to the work he did,and then had the stones to cover it with high gloss black paint.

deathbound Posted February 2, 2016 Report Share Posted February 2, 2016 I got there late and think a lot of the cars outside the Suede Palace were gone. Here are a couple I did see....a 1933 for TodFitch for a little inspiration ( ) and a T&C, which I'm not a big fan of. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
